Sephora Sale Favorites (Spring 2025)
It’s time for the Sephora Spring Savings Sale! Us Rouge girlies have already started making our picks (4/4), but VIB & Beauty Insiders have the next week to shop from 4/8-4/14. This time around, I am already good & stocked on most of my essentials so I’ll be trying out some fun new things this spring! Here are my Sephora Sale favorites this time around:
Sephora Sale Favorites:
Spring 2025 Edition
Daily Makeup
IT cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Full Coverage Anti-Aging Waterproof Concealer
As someone with a very visible, deep red birthmark on my chin, concealer is a necessity and while it doesn’t 100% conceal it, there are some great products that offer incredibly pigmented coverage and I even use them on my cheeks to tone down my natural redness! I switched to the IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Full Coverage Anti-Aging Waterproof Concealer after I heard that Make Up For Ever was phasing out my holy grail concealer and I’ve never looked back, this concealer IS THAT GIRL. Fantastic, thick coverage. Everything a red toned girl could want!
Rare Beauty Positive Light Precision Highlighter Brush
I’ve kind of been off my highlighter game in recent years and I felt inspired to get back into it! I’m giving Selena’s Rare Beauty precision brush a try along with one of her highlighters (see below). Will report back!
Rare Beauty Positive Light Silky Touch Highlighter
To pair with the brush, I’m giving Rare Beauty’s silky touch highlighter a whirl in the shade “Exhilarate” (champagne gold). I’m hoping this shade works for my skin tone as they were sold out of the lighter option!
Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm for Hydration & Shine
One of my holy grail products that I can’t get enough of! I love the scents/shades Vanilla, Vanilla Beige, and Iced Coffee, and this time I’m giving a pretty red a try with “Cherry”.
Gisou Honey Infused Hydrating Lip Oil
I was super intrigued when I saw these in store and added it to my wishlist for the sale. The product is pretty pigmented for a casual lip oil and tastes delicious, it’s almost good enough to eat! Based on package instructions, it looks like you should ideally keep the oil out of direct sunlight and at room temperature which may be difficult in summertime temps, but I’ll try my best! I’m trying out “Strawberry Sorbet” - a sheer pinky red.
ILIA Color Block High Impact Lipstick
This lipstick is STUNNING! This will be my first Ilia product and I’m super excited. I chose the color “Tango” which is a true/deep red. I thought this would be a great addition to my collection given that my main red right now is Trixie Cosmetic’s “Red Scare”, more of a light orangey red.
Kosas Weightless Lip Color Nourishing Satin Lipstick
Another beautiful lipstick, this one is lighter and more casual, in the color “Daydream” (cool pink). I’m excited to see how the Kosas lipsticks are! I’ve heard great things about this brand as well.
Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Luminous Powder Blush
I gave this blush a try a year ago and loved the buildable pigment but quickly realized that when I tapped my brush on the side of the palette, it instantly cracked all of the contents and I didn’t get anywhere close to my full use out of this product. Fair warning that you need to tap on a sink or other surface to get rid of the excess! That fact won’t stop me from being a loyal user, the shades are just so good. I have been using “Joy” (a muted peach), but this time I’m trying “Hope” (a nude mauve).
Haus Labs Color Fuse Talc-Free Blush Powder With Fermented Arnica
I recently purchased one of these for a friend’s gift and couldn’t wait until I had a bit of extra money to treat myself to one! I’m going with the shade “Pomelo Peach” - a beautiful soft coral. I’d trust anything mother makes!
MERIT Flush Balm Cream Blush
I’ve been seeing everyone rave about the MERIT cream blush pots! I cannot wait to try these. They seem much less pigmented and more buildable vs. something like Rare Beauty’s liquid blushes. I think a cream is the perfect in between! I’m trying it out with the shade “Beverly Hills” (soft peach).
Supergoop! Every. Single. Face. Watery Lotion Sunscreen SPF 50
Ever since I started working with a dermatology clinic as a client, I’ve learned the true importance of a daily SPF regardless of the season. Yes, that means you should be putting this on every day with your other makeup products. I’ve tried Supergoop!’s Golden Hour Glow Screen, but the tint is a bit too much for my skin tone and makes me end up looking a bit dirty even though it’s nice and shiny. This watery lotion is what everyone raves about as their go-to everyday SPF underneath makeup - there’s no white cast and doesn’t feel oily. I have become a full convert since buying this last fall and will be re-stocking this time around.
Misc. Beauty
Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa ’59 Delicia Hair & Body Fragrance Mist
I have been obsessed with my ‘40 & ‘71 mists the past year and cannot wait to get my hands on the ‘59 - may be my favorite one yet! This scent is uplifting and delicious with notes of vanilla orchid, sugared violet, and sheer sandalwood. Pretty sure there’s a hint of amber, too, which is my number one favorite perfume scent!
Touchland Power Essence Body & Hair Fragrance Mist
Speaking of amber, I couldn’t resist trying Touchland’s new hair & body mist in the scent Golden Amber (Touchland is the famous hand sanitizer brand - see below). This is going to become one of my new go-tos, I already know it!
Touchland Power Mist Hydrating Hand Sanitizer
Don’t hate me for using $10 hand sanitizer, please! I know I’m crazy but it’s just SO DANG GOOD. As your resident COVID-and-other-illnesses-conscious (hypochondriac) girlie, I’ve fallen in love with this product making sanitizer actually fun (and smelling good!). I had to pick up another one of my faves: Watermelon!
